Sono Harris Is With Jesus – Pray for the Harris family. “Today, July 4, 2010, at approximately 11pm, our dear mother, Sono Sato Harris, passed away and went to be with her Lord Jesus Christ.

Ministry, Guilt and Seasons of Life – This is a fantastic article from Jani Ortlund in which she challenges women, mothers especially, not to live under the shadow of guilt. “As a young mother everyone wants something from you—your family, your church, your boss, your neighbor.

And it often lingers through the years, even after your children are grown and gone.”

The so-called Letter from Bambarre was scribbled by the Scottish explorer on torn-out book pages in February 1871.”

  • Will You Be a Pillar?

    How do we lead in a culture shaped by performance, individualism, and platform?

  • The Tallest Trees

    The Winds Blow Hardest Against the Tallest Trees

    Through the weekend had many questions about Christian leaders who fall. And I expressed that just as the winds blow hardest against the tallest trees, so temptations may press hardest against the leaders who rise the highest.
